[Verse]
C                      F          C
The first strange town I was ever in 

               G7        C
The county was hanging a man

                F           C
Nobody cared if he lived or died 

                  G7   C
And I just didn't understand
[Chorus]
     F                     C
So I washed my face in the morning dew 

F                     C
Bathed my soul in the sun

F                     C       Am
Washed my face in the morning dew 

C           G7     C
And kept on moving along
[Verse]
                        F          C
The second strange town that I was in 

                        G7            C
They were laughing at a poor crippled man

                        F            C
Begging for nickels and dimes on the street 

              G7   C
I just didn't understand

                       F          C
The third strange town that I was in 

            G7           C
Was settled peaceful and nice

                        F        C
The rich got richer the poor got poorer 

             G7          C
And to me it didn't seem right
[Chorus]
     F                     C
So I washed my face in the morning dew 

F                     C
Bathed my soul in the sun

F                     C       Am
Washed my face in the morning dew 

C           G7     C
And kept on moving along
[Verse]
                    F        C
Well some times are bound to change

         G7            C
A change can't be very far

                   F      C
And each injustice I have seen

           G7         C
Shall come before the bar
[Chorus/Outro]
     F                     C
So I washed my face in the morning dew 

F                     C
Bathed my soul in the sun

F                     C       Am
Washed my face in the morning dew 

C              G7      C
And my journey will be done 

               G7      C
And my journey will be done
